Earlier this year, McGregor and his potential opponent took part in a season of “The Ultimate Fighter” that is presently running and heightening interest in their highly awaited fight.

Many people presumed that this meant McGregor’s comeback has been postponed until 2024, but he insisted that is not the case when watching UFC 290 on Saturday night.
In a since-deleted post, he stated “December,” indicating that he will make a comeback at UFC 296.
Chandler, a former Bellator MMA champion, had been urging McGregor to fight him ever since he entered the UFC more than two years ago.
Islam Makhachev tweeted today mentioning Dana White about his next opponent and the location his fight would be scheduled for. Michael Chandler commented in the tweet saying, “Our time is coming”.
Even though Conor has yet to re-register with USADA’s testing pool, which requires him to finish six months of mandatory drug testing before competing again, McGregor has remained adamant he will fight Chandler towards the end of the year. The Miami Police Department is currently looking into the Irishman for an alleged sexual assault, which McGregor has adamantly denied.
In the midst of his ascension through MMA’s top promotion, where he earned the moniker “Mystic Mac,” McGregor shared his thoughts on his forthcoming fight with Chandler.
